The Art of Prioritization: Maximizing Productivity as an Interior Designer
Find the Right Management System
Management systems like Asana or Monday.com are helpful because they will store all your project information. Everything from the day you begin a project, to setting deadlines for every phase of the project, to noting all items that need to be developed, presented, approved, expedited and installed, all the way down to the lightbulbs and toilet paper holders – that’s where the real glamour comes in!
High Level Milestones to Remember
Pro tip! Make sure your team is aware and in agreement with the deadlines you have set before committing to the client! By plugging everything into a management system, you will be able to see the flow of projects over the course of 6 months or even a year and understand if it’s attainable.
